The most courageous pirate hunter

Is anyone still watching? Why are there no comments?

Chapter 295 [Blackbeard Questions the meaning of life]

Buzz! ! !

A massive explosion erupted into the sky, sending two halos of light radiating outwards. These rays swiftly swept across the ice, causing it to overturn in all directions. This earth-shattering roar once again drew the attention of everyone on the battlefield.

"King of Hunters".

The Five Elders and others were furious.

Some people didn't understand why the Hunter King would appear in such a far place, or who he was fighting. The only thing they were sure of was that it must have been the Hunter King who did it.

"Jormungandr?"

Dragon, Whitebeard, and the others also stared in that direction.

"That beast has indeed not left yet, and is secretly waiting for an opportunity to strike."

no doubt.

Hermes' appearance worried everyone, since no one knew who the Hunter King would target next. Doflamingo and Hancock were even considering leaving.

Those who were supposed to contribute have already done so.

The Navy has completely lost hope of victory. Unless the World Government provides further support or the other three Five Elders personally intervene, the situation is not optimistic.

"Ouch, that hurts!!!"

The thick smoke that rose into the sky gradually dissipated, revealing a large crater in the frozen sea. The temperature inside had risen, causing a large amount of steam to spread. Blackbeard and his men, their faces covered in blood, were trapped deep in the icy crater, looking extremely disheveled.

"Is this the power of the world's most courageous man? He almost died."

The eyes of the Doc Qs were filled with fear.

Just a moment ago, they really saw their respective great-grandmothers; it was truly terrifying.

"Damn it, why did the Hunter King suddenly attack us?"

Katrin Dermei got up, her hair disheveled, and looked around, fearing that the Hunter King would come out and punch them again. Little did she know that they had just said they wanted to hunt the Hunter King.

"Captain, watch out!"

Van Augur, pale-faced, raised his sniper rifle and fired a shot at Blackbeard. The bullet flew and hit a figure, leaving a trail of blood, which left Van Augur in disbelief.

He didn't actually have high hopes for this attack.

"Hehehe~"

"Van Auger, well done!"

"Dark Water."

It must be said that Blackbeard was very good at seizing opportunities. The moment Van Augur struck Hermes, his entire right hand, as black as ink, suddenly grabbed at the mocking Hermes.

Gravity struck immediately.

Hermes did not struggle, letting his body fly towards Blackbeard.

Van Augur's shot just now was intentional. The damage he caused has already healed in such a short time, almost like a tickle. Unless it's a fatal wound, it's almost impossible to kill him.

"Caught!"

"Hehehe~"

The moment Blackbeard grabbed Hermes' shoulder, his face covered in blood, he grinned savagely, his eyes filled with the excitement of a victor. This was the King of Hunters, the most courageous man in the world.

If he could take everything from this man, he could become the second Hunter King.

It was truly a stroke of luck; I never expected to catch it so easily.

"It's very interesting that I can't actually sense the presence of the Devil Fruit."

Hermes carefully sensed it and found that the Mini Fruit had become dormant, as if it had never existed. It has to be said that the Dark-Dark Fruit is terrifying; it is simply the natural counter to Devil Fruit users.

"Hehehe~"

"Jormungandr, you're too confident. Aren't you suspicious?"

"This is the most vicious ability in the world. Once I catch you, you will be unable to use your Devil Fruit powers."

"Without your Devil Fruit powers, you are like a fish on a chopping board, at my mercy."

Blackbeard laughed wildly. That punch earlier almost killed him, but luckily he was strong enough to absorb some of the damage with the Dark-Dark Fruit at the crucial moment. Otherwise, even if he survived, he wouldn't have been able to get up.

"Jie Jie~"

"I thought the Dark-Dark Fruit was really that powerful, but it turns out it only suppresses the abilities of Devil Fruits. It can't suppress Haki and physical skills, which makes it seem rather weak."

Hermes' expression gradually turned sinister, and Blackbeard instantly had a bad feeling.

At the same time, danger struck again.

A chill ran straight up to the base of his tail.

puff~

An unseen attack.

Blackbeard was bent over like a shrimp, his face contorted in a grotesque expression, blood gushing from his mouth and nose. His entire body seemed to fall apart, and a terrifying shockwave erupted from behind him, rapidly tearing apart the edge of the crater and spreading to its end.

Before Blackbeard could fly away, Hermes grabbed him by the neck.

"How is that possible?"

"captain."

"What a joke, you shouldn't be able to use Devil Fruits after being captured by the captain."

"This is impossible."

Lafitte and the others who rushed over were in disbelief. Just a second ago, their captain had captured the King of Hunters, and now the Flower of Hunters was grabbing their captain.

what the hell.

"Even more arrogant than I am."

Grabbing Blackbeard by the neck, a barrage of purple and white armor swept over him, like a cage that rendered him immobile. Unless Blackbeard's Haki was stronger than Hermes', he would not be able to break free.

This is a minor application of Armament Haki, nothing unusual.

Ultimately, the reason was that Blackbeard was too arrogant; he simply didn't understand Hermes.

It's important to know that Hermes has been adapting to Seastone all these years, and he's even trained to the point of exhaustion with his life force. His Armament Haki has been constantly tempering his muscles and bones. Even without his Devil Fruit powers, Hermes' physical skills are already incredibly strong.

Even if Hermes is restrained with seastone now, he still has the strength to fight.

Compared to the inherent weakness of Seastone, the Dark-Dark Fruit can only suppress the Devil Fruit user's power; it cannot make the user lose their strength. Even if it could, it would be useless because Hermes is immune to most of the effects of Seastone to a certain extent.

It is also the result of years of hard work.

"Why is this happening?"

Blackbeard was genuinely afraid.

A single punch was enough to knock him unconscious, leaving him unable to move for a while.

Why is the opponent still so powerful even without a Devil Fruit?

"attack!!!"

Lafitte and his group acted swiftly, launching attacks on Hermes. Each of them was a powerful figure, and their combined strength was terrifying. However, Hermes was not the only member of the Monarchy organization.

A door opened.

Lucci, Burgess, and others all had their fists glow with a bright white light.

Hody Jones and Guy Rum also sinisterly brandished their weapons.

Suddenly, a flurry of terrifying energy surged into the sky. Poison Q and his companions turned green, and after managing to defend themselves, they coughed up blood. They came and went just as quickly.

Injury upon injury.

"Walk!!!"

Hermes had no intention of lingering; he felt safer in the alternate dimension.

But then an unexpected event occurred. A figure appeared like lightning, his katana thrusting straight at Hermes' heart, his killing intent boiling over.

"Boss, watch out."

Mansherry looked anxious.

It all happened so fast.

"The field unfolds."

Hermes' expression also changed, because the one who attacked him was not a weakling, but the Five Elders of the Samurai Swords. The Five Elders had been on guard all along, just waiting for Hermes to appear.

Although they appeared outside the battlefield, the Five Elders arrived the moment Hermes appeared.

This time, we must kill the Hunter King no matter what.

Even war can be lost, Whitebeard can live, but the King of Hunters must die.
